לא פראיירים [Lo Frayerim] [English translation]

(How long)

Will we sail in our dreams, like a MIG plane we'll overlook

From up above, it's a stench, from afar, it's safe

Which is five minutes from Kfar Saba

(How long)

Will we close our eyes and ignore what's happening right in front of us

And pretend like everything's fine

Bring some beer from the fridge

Switch the channel

(How long)

Will we think of smoking, drinking

Getting laid

So what if my neighbor Danny is an orphan?

I went to the funeral and to his home for the mourning

But I cannot break the circle of suffering

And we'll do military reservists (and we'll pay the taxes)

And we'll get stuck in traffic (we will not get screwed)

(We're sure, sure, sure as hell)

We're definitely not suckers

(My friends say: "Enough, stop being so serious.")

(And I don't mind, but it's just absurd)

(Try to catch my examples)

(If you can't, then wait up for me)

('Cause if) a missile fell here (a missile)

There should be another [military] container over there

What does it matter who'll take Jordan's place, or Kattash's or Shaquille's?

And if there's a firing range here, then there's a mine over there

What does it matter if I pay using check, credit or cash?

And with a 700 NIS water bill, and a 2000 NIS property tax

I must be on an operation for…

Left, right, look to the sides

And we'll do military reservists (and we'll pay the taxes)

And we'll get stuck in traffic (we will not get screwed)

(We're sure, sure, sure as hell)

We're definitely not suckers

And sometimes everything seems so strange, disconnected

Like a nun at a brothel or a prostitute at a monastery

(Everything goes from bad to worse‏‏‏‏)

(A tear forms in the eye, sliding down a cheek)

(And you) I just cry over everything

I cry because it could've been great here

(We could've had harmony)

Between a synagogue, and a bulletproof vest, and a mosque

A mall, a church, everything could've been united

Instead, there's a feeling of (help)

Living in this feeling of (like)

Without looking reality in the eye

Without moving forward, just trying to stay afloat

To disconnect, to do everything just to not get screwed

To do everything just to not get screwed

And we'll do military reservists (and we'll pay the taxes)

And we'll get stuck in traffic (we will not get screwed)

(We're sure, sure, sure as hell)

We're definitely not suckers
